The Mouth, the Lips, the Tongue

11 The mouth of a righteous one [is] a fountain of life;
But the mouth of the wicked covereth violence.
12 Hatred stirreth up strifes;
But love covereth all transgressions.
13 In the lips of one intelligent wisdom is found;
But a rod [is] for the back of him that is void of understanding [or, heart].
14 The wise lay up knowledge;
But the mouth of the fool [is] near destruction.
18 He that covereth hatred hath lying lips;
And he that uttereth slander [is] a fool [or, vile].
19 In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression;
But he that restraineth his lips doeth wisely.
20 The tongue of the righteous [is as] choice silver;
The heart of a wicked one [is] little worth.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many;
But fools die for want of understanding” (Prov. 10:11-14,18-21 WK).
